[TYPO3] Changing font and table borders in RTE

I have had Typo3 set up by the web developer, but he didn't know what to do
with it, so he just created a whole lot of HTML components and that was it
for him.

I want to use Typo3 properly and I consider that almost cheating.  So, my
learning curve begins.

I can add and change simple components, but when trying to format the font
and table in htmlarea it isn't working for me.

Typo3 = v3.8.1
rtehtmlarea = 1.3.7

Using IE7.

My questions:
1. The font defaults to Black.  I have seen that by changing mainstyle_color
it should update it, but I do not know what values this function needs.  For
example, I need the text to be gray (393939) and it doesn't seem to accept
either the text or HTML color?  What is happening here?

2. The table has a border, no matter what I do.  If I add a table in the
RTE, or if I add a Table component, I still get a border around the cell.
If I toggle the border on/off, it has no effect.

3. Lastly, if you want to make changes like these to one page only, do you
modify the TS settings at the same level as the page, or do you always have
to make these changes at the index.html level?

Thanks
Chris
